the rising or oncoming point of the zodiac shows the way we reveal ourselves when
we first meet people. | | Descendant | Shows
the way we reveal ourselves to people we know intimately, or it may show the part
of ourselves that we only express through other people. | | Midheaven | Represents
the way we try to achieve recognition, and the part of ourselves we are reaching
towards. | | Imum Coeli | Represents
the part of the self that is most deeply buried in the unconscious. |

Thur 21: Sun in Taurus:

Moon SH : Wind Moon NH (Moon in Scorpio)
[SH=Southern Hemisphere, NH=Northern
Hemisphere]
Blood
Moon: In preparation for the winter, for the introspective time of the
year, we seek to clean out the old. We are entering the time of thought, of cerebral
activity. For some, school awaits. For others, the winter months are those spent
cooped up inside due to inclement weather. Now is a good time to take stock of
your goals and to plan ahead for the approaching winter. What do you want to accomplish?
Affirmation for the Blood Moon: My mind is alert, I observe with keen insight.
Wind Moon: The Wind
Moon of April is a good time to let the fresh breezes blow through to remove stagnation.
For the Full Moon, make a list of things that have been cluttering your life on
an emotional or psychic level. Affirmation for the Win Moon: My path is clear,
free from obstacles.
Moon
in Scorpio: Your emotional reactions are very powerful and commanding.
You could be a dangerous opponent to anyone who crosses your path the wrong way.
You are extremely loyal. You have a need to delve into and transform your feelings
- either through your own self-searching or through outside channels. You are
intuitively aware of the inner motives of others. You nurture others with your
magnetism, intensity, loyalty and protectiveness. You need a strong emotional
relationship with your mother, and look upon her as a fierce protector.
